Iraq's Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi promised to listen to people's grievances after three days of deadly protest in Baghdad and several other cities. Hundreds of protesters rallied in the capital for a third consecutive day Thursday, defying a curfew, to call for jobs, improved services and an end to widespread corruption. About 30 people have been killed and hundreds injured in clashes between the police and protesters. VOA's Zlatica Hoke reports a curfew has been extended to several cities.
